About

Experience Matters

I have over 25 years of experience working with senior adults. I know growing older can bring about unexpected transitions and changes - in our bodies, in our relationships, and in our abilities. But aging can also foster new growth. My absolute joy is to help adults ages 50+ as they navigate aging and its many surprises, which can include anxiety, depression, grief, or chronic illness. I also support those who have older adults in their circle of care, who may be overwhelmed with caregiver stress and burnout. For individuals with memory loss, I offer specialized services in the form of Cognitive Stimulation Therapy.
